Julian Assange exposed incompetence, war crimes and atrocities as a publisher (Wikileaks). It was an embarrassment to USA (and Five Eyes military intel). But Western peoples have a right to know, particularly when our sons & daughters are put in harm’s way e.g Afghanistan/Iraq.
Julian Assange is one of the longest-serving political prisoners in the western world. Every level of the case against him has been shot through with corruption and the abuse of process.
People justify it by reciting memes to demonstrate their allegiance.
This is dystopia.
On the final day of the #SummitForDemocracy the @joeBiden government provides a gruesome spectacle of how to torture and persecute a publisher.
#Assange is persecuted because he published true information about war crimes committed with impunity covered up by the US government.
